48. In memory of Terry,

    Our hair might have greyed
    Over the 40 years we’ve been friends
    But your smile never faded
    With that big cheeky grin.

    Always up for a laugh
    Sending me jokes
    Ready to share a beer
    Just an all round top bloke

    With no time to tell you
    Before your time came to an end
    It’s been a privilege
    To call you my friend

    For you’ve been
    a great mate
    That will be sorely missed
    And I’ll think of you often
    After you’ve been laid to rest.

    Our deepest sympathy and condolences to Lyn and family on the sudden passing of Terry.

    Our thoughts are with you all at this sad time. – Max Runnalls & Family

49. Dear Lyn, family, Dennis and Geoff,
    Phil and I were so sorry to hear of the passing of my kind and generous cousin, Terry. It is clear from the many tributes how much Terry was loved and respected by both his family and the racing community to which he devoted so much of his time and considerable talent.
    As a younger cousin (by 8 years) I will always remember Terry’s patience and kindness to Chris and me when we were small.
    We are so glad we will be able to watch the funeral livestream with Mum and Dad and say goodbye to a special cousin and a special man. Much love to you all,
    Susan (Bansgrove) and Phil (Manderson).

50. Living thousands of miles away we didn’t see a lot of Terry. But two visits back to Australia will always stay with me. First stop was Ouyen to be with my mother, Alice. Sunday Mum waited for Terry’s phone call – he called every Sunday evening. It was the highlight of Granny’s week. What a lovely and precious thing Terry did for Mum.
    Again, on one of my trips alone home to Ouyen, we went to the Mildura trotting meeting where Terry was competing in a race – he won. I was so excited I ran into the “winner’s circle” – a “NO NO”!
    Another visit, with our daughter Christine and sister Shirley Ritchie we met Lyn on their ranch. What a lovely warm welcome they extended to the three of us. Lyn, a great cook, and Christine thoroughly enjoyed the time they spent touring the property. None of us will ever forget Terry’s commitment to taking care of Geoffrey and Dennis when they had health problems.
    My love and respect, Auntie Nancy
